Chapter 408 The Dark Multiverse Always Develops in the Worst Direction

"Sinestro!"

The shout, the whisper, was like the chill of the wind, whispering softly in my ears.

"Do you think you can control everything in this world? Who do you think you are?"

The voice was like a cold wind like a blade, mixed with snowflakes and the illusion of skin being cut.

"Who do you think you are? Why do you think you can make arbitrary decisions and decide the fate of so many people?"

Sinestro raised his head, and the voice became clearer in his mind.

I am Sinestro.

"There won't be a next time, Sinestro, even though this time the people you chose to sacrifice might only be a group of criminals, even though you did a good job and no one noticed - you thought, even though you won the bet this time, not only saving your own life, but also the lives of those prisoners."

"But I must warn you, there won't be a next time."

"Your plan can't take into account all the situations that may happen, and the choice of taking a gamble won't make you win every time."

"Every rookie in the Green Lantern Corps always thinks that he is the chosen one, and always thinks that his willpower is unparalleled in the world. But the fact is: human power is sometimes limited."

"The recruits who die the fastest are often the most courageous recruits. You are too arrogant. When you think you can accomplish something, you never think about the possibility of your failure.

"You ask for my advice? My opinion is, never do things beyond your control, even if you think you can handle it, because at this time you often overestimate yourself.

If you think something can be done and you put your life and the lives of others on the gambling table as chips, then losing is inevitable... Don't think I don't know you, Sinestro."

"For you, you seem to play it safe, but you are too eager to prove yourself. If there is a 7-point chance of winning, you will want to try it, and even dare to do it at all costs, and never want to think about whether there will be a better solution."

"What do you need to prove? Who do you want to prove to? Me? Yourself?"

"A truly great Green Lantern does not need to prove to anyone. "

I'm Sinestro.

And I have a plan, a damn good plan.

I tricked Mongo about the Blue Lantern Ring. He was going to use it to make me lose my ability to resist, but what he didn't know was that I was monitoring all of this.

Mongo must have thought that the Blue Lantern Ring he found was stolen from a random member of the Blue Lantern Tribe, but what he didn't know was that the owner of the Blue Lantern Ring he was wearing before, the member of the Blue Lantern Tribe who was killed by the Cyborg during the process of stealing the ring, was actually a dead soldier.

He used to be a criminal, and after wearing the Blue Lantern Ring, he sincerely confessed his mistakes to Abinsu and was willing to do it for I was willing to die for Abinsu and do anything for him.

When I found out that Mongo and the others wanted to use the Green Lantern Ring, I started my plan.

I replaced the Green Lantern Ring with the first Green Lantern Ring forged by Abinsu.

The previous host of the Green Lantern Ring was Abinsu himself, and the second host, his name was...

Shal Sinestro, that is...

Me.

I deliberately manipulated the Green Lantern to die at the hands of the Cyborg Superman, and as expected, he escaped with the ring and finally put it on Mongo's own hand.

This ring can establish a connection between me and Mongo, forming a connection on the emotional spectrum. System.

Lantern No. 1 told me many secrets about the emotional spectrum. I am sure that I can use what he taught me and the influence of the Qing Lantern Ring on Mongo to control Mongo to a certain extent, just like what Abinsu did.

Qingnv, the leader of the Qing Lantern Corps, is actually the murderer of Abinsu's daughter. After Abinsu established the Qing Lantern Ring, he used the Qing Lantern Ring to twist her into his loyal believer, a thorough pity sow -

This is not an ordinary distortion. The Qing Lantern Ring forged by Abinsu contains Abinsu's full understanding of Qing Lantern and has abilities that ordinary Qing Lantern Rings cannot achieve.

It is at the end Completely changed Qingnv's personality, so that even if she took off the ring, she would repent from the bottom of her heart.

This change is subtle and takes time, but if Sinestro wants, he can completely turn this mental distortion into an emotional control that is under his control and erupts in a short period of time.

But the problem now is that Sinestro can't strengthen this control to the point of completely controlling the other person's body, unless...

He gets the help of Night Owl.

The Father Box, also known as Pandora's Box, can control everyone who twists him. Pandora, one of the three original sins, thought that the Father Box would only trigger the evil in people's hearts, but this is actually just what the operator of the Father Box wants the person who gets the Father Box to do.

In the big event "Three Body War", the Father Box even controlled Superman and almost wiped out the entire Justice League alone. Even his favorite Batman couldn't stop him.

If Night Owl was willing to lend the Father Box to Sinestro, Sinestro would be able to use the Father Box, a technology from another planet - although Sinestro didn't understand, a truck driver didn't need to know how to make a truck.

He could completely use the power of the emotional spectrum through this box, using the Green Lantern Ring as an anchor point to directly and completely control Mongo.

It was precisely because of this that Sinestro didn't care what Mongo could do. For him, no matter what Mongo had planned or who he had rebelled against, it didn't mean anything to him.

Mongo was already a puppet in front of him that could be manipulated at any time. All he did was to make sure that Mongo really wore the Green Lantern Ring.

From that moment on, the battle between him and Mongo was over.

Therefore, no matter what Mongo did now, it was just humiliating himself.

But if that's all, it's not worth Sinestro's preparations at this time.

Because after reaching the idea of ​​being able to control Mongo at any time, Sinestro came up with a more brilliant idea.

He wanted Mongo to be the host of Parallax.

That's right, even Sinestro felt that with his current ability, it would be impossible to reversely control Parallax, so from beginning to end, Sinestro never thought of trying Parallax himself.

But just because he didn't want to try, it didn't mean that he couldn't let others try.

Don't forget, Batman...

Sinestro never really trusted Batman. In his opinion, no one knew what Batman was thinking, even though he said nice things.

He and Hal were creatures on the same planet, and they were very close. If Batman intended to support Hal's idea, Sinestro couldn't control Batman like he controlled Mongo.

Although he didn't participate in the final outcome of Batman's fight against Darkseid, but fled halfway, this quagmire that he thought was impossible to win, but when Batman appeared. Here, it means that Darkseid has lost, at least Batman has thwarted his plan to attack the earth, which is definitely a very dangerous signal.

Sinestro knows a lot about Darkseid. The Guardians of the Universe attacked Darkseid's Apokolips in vain, and even sold out their Green Lantern subordinates to Darkseid. Sinestro had known about it through Abinsu a long time ago. Otherwise, why do you think he looked down on the Guardians of the Universe so much?

And it is precisely because of knowing what kind of opponent Darkseid is that Sinestro deeply knows how worthy of fear Batman who has solved Darkseid is. Without the parallax monster, Sinestro is not sure if he has the ability to confront Batman head-on.

This is why he initially hoped to lure Batman away from the mountain and not interfere with his plan to attack OA, but this idea failed in the end, and Sinestro was forced to face the worst situation he could think of.

Therefore, if Sinestro wants to fight against Batman instead of becoming Batman's puppet in the next negotiation or confrontation, he must master the powerful force of Parallax Monster to have the capital to fight against Batman.

And this is what Sinestro wants to plan now.

During the battle, Sinestro was always distracted. Abinsu's words echoed in his mind again and again, as if accusing him of what he was going to do next.

But Sinestro knew that this was just a psychological effect, a fear before executing his plan, an emotion that needed to be overcome.

As he said to Abinsu that year:

Sometimes if you don't gamble, you will never be able to make a breakthrough. If you think you can do it...

Then you should believe in yourself and make progress!

There is no such thing in the world that you can do with 100% certainty!

The brave wins when you meet on a narrow road. When you do things, you can start doing things as long as you are 30% sure. 50% is a great luck. 70% sure is no different from being completely sure.

Therefore...

Why not give it a try.

Sinestro's overly arrogant personality traits can be reflected in many places in the original comics. In "The Wrath of Lantern No. 1", Sinestro directly embraced Parallax Monster. You should know that before Sinestro embraced Parallax Monster, except for Hal Jordan who separated from Parallax Monster by willpower, there has never been any evidence that Parallax Monster can be reversely controlled, and no one has ever done it.

But he thought he was OK, so he went ahead. He never considered what would happen if he made a wrong bet. What if Parallax Monster reversely controlled him? In addition to facing Lantern No. 1, Hal and his friends would have to face Sinestro, the Parallax Demon.

Moreover, even if he controlled Parallax Monster, he couldn't deal with Lantern No. 1. The other party was not hurt at all when he took out his heart. If Hal hadn't finally transformed into the greatest Black Lantern and controlled the Black Death Emperor to kill Lantern No. 1 with a sickle, that major event would have been wiped out.

If the first Lantern was just forced, in Blackest Night, he rushed in before Hal and the others and embraced the spirit of the White Lantern Beast. The reason was to "prove that he was the greatest Lantern". He was just eager to prove himself, not only did he act so arbitrarily, but also attacked his teammates.

In a dark universe (the dark multiverse version of Blackest Night), Sinestro also confessed that he was too arrogant.

But in fact, in the positive universe, although Sinestro always made some crazy operations, he basically won every bet. Regardless of whether the winning bet had an effect on the battle situation, he basically never suffered any setbacks. However, in the dark universe...

It may not be such a beautiful ending.

"Dark Mercy..."

Sinestro looked at Amon Su in front of him.

Don't think he doesn't know. A poor guy who has not inherited any of his father's greatness, a dirty, cruel, cold-blooded criminal, the most famous unfilial son of Abinsu, pretended to be a loyal minister beside him.

Just relying on a flower that can cause hallucinations, he wants to turn the tables for his master?

Who are you insulting?

"Sinestro, you'd better not be stabbed by that flower. It will create a beautiful dream and make you completely indulge in it..."

He heard Batman's tone was a little serious and full of fear: "Don't think that you are immune to that kind of thing because your willpower is strong enough. The beautiful dream created by Black Mercy is what you desire most in your heart. If you want to escape from that world, you must tear up what you desire most with your own hands."

"It is a torture for anyone."

Batman's words were still chattering in Sinestro's ears. Sinestro never thought that Batman would be so long-winded.

"And what's worse is that, as far as I know, Black Mercy has another terrible variant, that is, it does not create beautiful dreams, but nightmares."

"The deepest nightmare creates the deepest fear, a completely fallen world, and the huge fear is enough to collapse anyone's will. I must warn you that this is based on the effect of drugs. Don't think that your willpower is strong enough and want to resist it. This is a physiological change. As long as your will is still in this body, it will inevitably be affected by hormones."

Sinestro did not speak. Fear, what are you kidding, he is the one who masters fear.

He is the master of the Yellow Lantern Corps! He is Sinestro, the greatest Green Lantern and Yellow Lantern in history, with the strongest willpower, enough to rival Abinsu.

When it comes to playing with fear, Sinestro will not lose to anyone, whether it is Mongo, Batman, or even the source of fear, Parallax Monster. Parallax Monster is just an aggregate of fear energy, and he, Sinestro, is the master of fear!

He couldn't control the parallax monster, so could he be unable to break free from the plant?
